Tash'k Omar basicly described it all in his first post.
You need to go to 0.0, imo best way is to haul with freighter and refine at the station. As he said, after 8 hours your POS hangar is full and 1. compressing the ore 2. moving it to refine station is really *****.
The problem with mining in high sec is that the roids are tooooo smal, you will have to swap rocks ever 2 cycles. In 0.0 the rocks last much longer. But another problem is .... even in 0.0 you will probably mine with strip miners I and not with T2, because micro managing crystals on 15 pilots is fking insane. It will drive you mad.
Most of the corps that rent out systems set 5% tax on minerals, which is "ok". I noticed BoT charge 0% for ore refine, which is very nice.
The problem could be .... what to do with all the low ends that you produce with the new ore changes. You will have to find someone to buy them off you, or maybe produce carriers and jump them to low sec and sell.
Also tip : we had lvl 5 industry in drone lands for 4 weeks and we had 0 campers in this time .... the further from high sec you are, the lower chance of getting campers/roamers there is. Sure, the logistic can be pain, but having your system clear is much bigger priority. We were 50 jumps from closest low sec, this discouraged most of pvpers to come and try to catch someone in our system. |

Or rent out system where you can scout 2 jumps ahead and you are safe .... you can setup small window in ISBOXER that will show the local window from your scout, so you don't have to have his client open all the time .... it will run in the background and you will only see that small cut with loca, so you will know 2 J ahead that someone is comming and have plenty of time to move your hulks to POS. And if you can setup some bubles .... the mining is like 100% safer than in high sec ( seriously, high sec freaks me out .... in 0.0 you know what to expect from people on local, in high .... 100 people in local and you have no idea who is ganker and who is AFK etc. :) ... not to mention I lost my mack after 2 hours in high sec, I never lost exhumer in 0.0 in 1.5 year :) ) |

What waste in 0.0 refine ??? Upgrade the station if you are getting low refine ammounts. The upgrades are not THAT expensive if you plan to mine a lot. |
